In detailing some of what's in store for Awesomenauts' upcoming patch 2.6, Ronimo Games announced that it's finally preparing another map: AI Station 205. That's not to be confused with the existing AI Station 404, which is s...

Ninjas and explosions: two great tastes that you would think taste great together, right? Throw them in a pot, mix with weapons, gadgets, and frenetic multiplayer action, and you have a recipe for an awesome adventure.
Sadly, I don't think this one cooked long enough.

Earlier I showed you a gallery for Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten that was pretty freaking large. If for whatever reason your itch to see awesome new screenshots for anime games is not scratched, here is another ginormous g...

It’s a well-known fact that the gaming industry is sorely lacking in strong female leads, with the game shelf at the local Best Buy sometimes looking like a page torn from “Who’s Who Among Expressionless Whi...

It’s fitting that I saw Asura’s Wrath alongside Dragon’s Dogma at TGS, because both their titles sound like euphuisms for diarrhea. This is kind of ironic because Asura’s Wrath is kind of the opposit...

We already reported that Street Fighter veteran Ryu would be coming to Asura's Wrath, but now we have evidence that Akuma is on his way as well. Will Asura be able to defend against the deadly Shun Goku Satsu?! Tune into "As...

All kidding aside, fans of the series' third assassin just may have something to look forward to. When asked during a reddit AMA if Connor's story ...

Some time ago, we got word that the first part of Assassin's Creed III's "King Washington" what-if add-on was being released on February 19. Now we know that Part 2 (The Betrayal) on will drop on March 19, and Part 3 (The Red...

We found out this was happening last month thanks to GameStop, but Ubisoft has made it official today with the announcement of the "Mediterranean Traveler map pack" for Assassin's Creed: Revelations. The pack will contain si...

Old man Ezio and ancient Altaïr get their showcase in this new trailer, which gives you some nice views of Assassin's Creed: Revelations' virtual Hagia Sofia. I wonder if there will be a feather on top of it somewhere?

With Assassin's Creed III on the way and looking intriguing in ways that should appeal to players who are totally new to the series, Ubisoft is smartly putting out a compilation. Assassin's Creed: Ezio Trilogy will bundle Ass...

Microsoft's massive Xbox Live sale kicked off yesterday and the hot deals just keep on coming. A quartet of Assassin's Creed titles joined the fray earlier today and will be available at slashed rates until March 4....

The amusing glitch-fest that was Assassin's Creed Unity didn't intentionally eschew the series' whacked out modern day narrative. In fact, more dalliances into now-time were planned for Unity, Assassin's Creed lead writer Dar...

As if Ubisoft weren't unleashing enough Assassin's Creed on the world this fall with Unity and Rogue slated for November, it has one more trick up its sleeve to rope in some players with less familiarity of the...

When Assassin's Creed Rogue comes to PC later this spring, players will be able to take advantage of some optional tech that, in a sense, won't restrict their field of vision to the confines of their screen; in fact, it...

When Liberation was released on the PlayStation Vita, I heartily enjoyed the opportunity to play Assassin's Creed on the go. Aveline was a great addition to the franchise, and it showed that Ubisoft could actually h...

Wait, you mean Watch Dogs isn't simply an extension of Assassin's Creed? I kid, I kid. It appears that Olivier Garneau, CEO of Abstergo Entertainment (as seen in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag) is actually in Watch Dogs in t...

At long last, the highly hyped expansion for Assassin's Creed III is here, and it's split into three parts.
The first portion, called "The Infamy" sets up an alternate reality scenario where George Washington, now "King Washi...

In an odd move, Ubisoft chose to split the King Washington DLC storyline into three separate parts. We've gotten The Infamy, then The Betrayal, and now, everything comes full circle for Connor and ol' George in The Redemption.
Not a whole lot has happened so far, but with the final chapter in sight, Ubisoft has a chance to tie it all together in a nice bow and justify its delivery scheme.

Ubisoft has a lot to prove with its "what if" story of an evil George Washington. The first episode wasn't nearly as enthralling as Ubisoft had promised, mostly due to the fact that it felt like a lot was held back in favor of splitting it into three parts.
The second portion, titled The Betrayal, in some ways, is a step forward -- a very, very small step forward, and a step back, that is.

The downloadable content for Assassin's Creed III has more than a despotic King Washington going for it. It also grants new abilities to Connor, and you can see probably the most terrifying of them in this new trailer. ...

As part of Xbox's somewhat newly revealed Games with Gold program, Assassin's Creed II is now available to download for free for Xbox Live Gold subscribers through the end of July. Sure, it's a four-year-old game. Yeah, ...

Army of Two has never been an especially bad series, it's just never been an especially good one. Providing simplified cooperative shooting action, as dumb and dirty as can be, the series has clearly found a fanbase for its p...

This trailer for the upcoming Armored Core: Verdict Day is all over the place, as it gives you a taste of the game's narrative, thematic elements, and a ton of gameplay to boot. The core focus is faction warfare, tying into ...

There are many theories on why mech games died out. The question I have is "why are they coming back now?"
Perhaps these two issues are tied closer together than some may think. It’s a matter of innovation, I believe. ...

Sanuk Games teased PlayStation 3 owners a couple of weeks ago when they announced that their fantastic Arkedo Series would be coming to PSN "soon." Well, they weren't kidding because today they've announced that the first ent...

Ooh boy. This trailer for Crytek's "action-packed online multiplayer game" Arena of Fate sure is something. First impressions are important and that grating narration doesn't leave a good one.
Looking on the bright side, I w...

Arcana Heart 3: LOVE MAX is out now in the US, and you can find the fighter digitally and physically on the PS3 and Vita. To address some confusion, publisher Aksys Games has taken to Twitter to announce that although the US ...

Few gamers expected Ar Tonelico III to arrive on North American PlayStation 3s after it was released early last year. The first game's quirky, thoroughly Japanese atmosphere earned it a cult following, but an embarrassingly b...

Gust RPG Ar Nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star is coming our way later this month. We've got fresh screenshots from Koei Tecmo on this upcoming PS3 release, showing its music-based battle system and the relationship-based ch...

When this past generation began, fighting games seemed to be on their last legs. Capcom fighters were nowhere in sight, Sega’s Virtua Fighter laid hidden in the deepest of digital fight clubs, and Namco’s Tekken a...

Super-fun comparison board game Apples to Apples will become a PSN and XBLA game this holiday season. THQ is adding social and online connectivity in the videogame version, which will allow for connected play, anywhere a...

The surreal platformer Another World is making its way to PS4 next week, and I couldn't be more excited. The game's 20 years old, for crying out loud, and yet it's somehow found a spot on a next-gen console so that people can...

PlayStation Plus subscribers are getting Anomaly: Warzone Earth for free this week! It's described as a action strategy tower offense game, which is kind of hard to imagine so good thing there's a trailer.

I'm pretty sure you've heard of Angry Birds by now. It's a game where you fling vengeful birds across a screen so you can murder other animals, who cooked up and ate the birds' young. It's a pretty sick game but people seem ...

The Angry Birds movie is not only a real thing, but it seems as though production is well underway, with a cavalcade of celebrity voice talent just announced today. The Columbia Pictures film will be directed by Clay Katis of...

As 2011 closed out it only seemed fitting that the gaming community was, once again, presented with the chance to take a shotgun to the head of its most overused mascot, the zombie. I mean, it was only last week when the l...

I was a fan of DoubleSix's Burn Zombie Burn, an arcade-style shooter with some very well-implemented scoring and a whole mess of zombies to set ablaze. As such, I'm quite excited for the follow-up, All Zombies Must Die, whic...

Last week, Steam removed Aliens: Colonial Marines and Alien vs. Predator 2010. Speculation arose as to why it happened -- was it because of all the Colonial Marines drama at Gearbox in the past, or is it because of ...

Just like Alien: Isolation's last piece of content, the newest add-on again asks you to decide what's more important: a shot at leaderboard fame or safety? The two are mutually exclusive, and there's a pissed off Xenomorph t...

There's one deal on PlayStation Plus this week that just seems too good to pass up. Starting tomorrow, Critter Crunch will be available for only $1.40. At that price there's almost no excuse not to be regurgitating color...
